What you'll do
There are some things you simply have to do with your hands -- and this is absolutely one of them! Join us for an immersive paper-making and indigo dyeing class in Berkeley, where you'll learn how to dye fabric using fresh indigo and create your very own seeded, plantable paper set that can be gifted, grown, or used to host a new moon gathering in the garden.This is one of those creative activities that feels equal parts meditative and magical. You'll get to play with two types of indigo dyeing techniques, work with fresh indigo plant (which dyes natural protein fibers like raw silk and wool beautifully), and press paper embedded with seeds you can actually plant. All materials are included, so you just need to show up ready to get your hands a little blue. If you happen to have a small piece of raw silk or wool -- smaller than a pillowcase -- bring it along for the ride. One heads-up: skip the fancy outfit and maybe bring an apron, because indigo is wonderfully committed to staining things.Whether you're looking for unique things to do in Berkeley, hunting for creative date ideas, or just craving something hands-on and genuinely fun, this class delivers. You'll leave with handmade paper, dyed fabric, new skills, and probably a new favorite hobby!Please note:Please do not wear your most precious outfit. We'll have a couple of aprons, but you might want to bring your own!

Ojalá Hojas is a heartfelt, handcrafted brand rooted in regeneration, creativity, and deep love for the Earth! Founded by Nicole Rangel — a Colombian-American educator and lifelong green thumb — the brand crafts beautiful plantable paper by hand, using organically processed fibers and embedding each sheet with organic, non-GMO seeds. Every piece is designed to be fully compostable and to literally come back to life in the soil, completing a gentle cycle from plant to paper and back to plant again.What makes Ojalá Hojas so special is the spirit woven into every sheet: an invitation to slow down, to connect with the land, and to share something meaningful with the people you love. Whether it's a greeting card embedded with marigold seeds, a paper set for a new moon ritual, or a workshop where you learn to make plantable paper with your own hands, Ojalá Hojas offers a joyful, life-giving alternative to the disposable and the ordinary. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, they pop up at local markets, host classes, and welcome custom orders and collaborations — always with warmth, intention, and a whole lot of cariño!
